Summary form only given. Integer programming is the problem of maximizing a linear function over the integer vectors which satisfy a given set of inequalities. A wide range of combinatorial optimization problems can be modeled as integer programming proble ...
It is a long standing open problem to find an explicit description of the stable set polytope of claw-free graphs. Yet more than 20 years after the discovery of a polynomial algorithm for the maximum stable set problem for claw-free graphs, there is even n ...
Convex polyhedra are important objects in various areas of mathematics and other disciplines. A fundamental result, known as Minkowski-Weyl theorem, states that every polyhedron admits two types of representations, either as the solution set to a finite sy ...
Failure location in transparent optical networks is difficult because of the large amount of alarms that a failure can trigger and because of corrupted alarms. One problem that network operators often face is how to set the thresholds in monitoring devices ...
Simultaneous link failures are common in IP networks \cite{Markopoulou04}. In this paper, we develop a technique for locating multiple failures in Service Provider or Enterprise IP networks using active measurement. We propose a two-phased approach that mi ...
We present a new hybrid algorithm for local search in distributed combinatorial optimization. This method is a mix between classical local search methods in which nodes take decisions based only on local information, and full inference methods that guarant ...
The common point between the different chapters of the present work is graph theory. We investigate some well known graph theory problems, and some which arise from more specific applications. In the first chapter, we deal with the maximum stable set probl ...
It is a long standing open problem to find an explicit description of the stable set polytope of claw-free graphs. Yet more than 20 years after the discovery of a polynomial algorithm for the maximum stable set problem for claw-free graphs, there is even n ...
In this paper, we consider the minimization of a relevant energy consumption related cost function in the context of sensor networks where correlated sources are generated at various sets of source nodes and have to be transmitted to some set of sink nodes ...
